A deadly explosion caused by a fire at a container terminal near the Bangladeshi city of Chittagong has killed at least 49 people and injured hundreds.

The blaze started late on Saturday when firefighters arrived and attempted to put out the flames.

As they swept through the containers, the fires triggered a series of explosions that rocked the depot and was felt in nearby towns.

Senior government officials believe some of the containers were storing hydrogen peroxide.

Sheikh Hasina, Bangladesh's prime minister, sent her condolences to the families of the deceased.
